IFBC NOLA

That was a lot of letters, wasn’t it?  Well, it is where I will be the next few days… at the International Food Bloggers Conference in New Orleans!  (Click here if you want more details.)  I am so excited to go to my first food blogging conference!  I am not sure what to expect, but the agenda and vendors look amazing.

When we get there on Friday, there are workshops on Blogging your Values and Food Styling and Photography.  Then a wine hour, reception, and cocktail crawl… already off to a good start!  On Saturday, there are a few different options for workshops, including How to Market Your Brand, an Allergy session (yes!), Culture, and Recipe Writing.  Those are followed by a New Orleans lunch, a cooking demonstration, and a wine and food pairing dinner.  Sunday offers How to Use Video, Restaurant Reviews, and Eating on a Budget.  All of these sessions look amazing and I can’t wait to hear what others have to say about the food blogging world!

So, wish me luck.  I will return with many things to write about, I am sure!

I also wanted to share with you one of my favorite birthday gifts that I received from a close friend…an apron that says “Balanced Fork, Healthy Life!”  It even has a fork logo on it.

I should wear it to the conference and market myself! 🙂
